    hello friends,
    Please, help identify the country of this stamp. http://www.cjoint.com/c/EKovpvWb5Xy
    thanks in advance,


    Hello Pedro,

    Not so many contributors nowadays here on RCSD :-(

    Identification of your stamp was not easy as the country name is
    written only with the arabic / persian alphabet and I do not read it.

    I was helped by this site : http://www.stampmasteralbum.com/ForeignCountryIdentifier/Hi/Iran.htm

    The country is Iran and it represents the Ministry of Justice in Teheran
    50 Dinars, issued in 1944

    Scott # 886
    Yvert & Tellier # 687

    Minimal value : 0.15 Euro or $

    HTH

    Unfortunately, it is more than true.

    Identification of your stamp was not easy as the country name is written
    only with the arabic / persian alphabet and I do not read it.

    Congratulations, good job.

    BTW, I couldn't find images of the frp participants in this years
    Champerret. I suppose that the reason was their weak participation.

    Amicalement,

    Victor

    Thanks, Victor :-)

    BTW, Pedro sent me a very kind personal mail to thank me as well.

    Good point, Victor !

    On the 1st day there was only one person from frp
    On the 2d day we were 3 for a a drink on "Timbres Magazine" 's
    stand followed by a friendly lunch in a nearby restaurant
    2 persons were present on the 3rd day and nobody on the last day !

    Thus no picture taken and placed on the web by myself.

    On the 3rd day you may be interested to see this short (1 min 40 sec)
    video taken by Gauthier Toulemonde, Chief-Editor of
    Timbres Magazine :

    The stamps that changed your life (or your collections)

    From frp, you can see Bernard Calmettes speaking of the variety (error
    of colour) of a stamp depicting Louis the XIV (second to be
    interviewed).
    And Michel Bablot (third to be interviewed) explaining that as a young
    boy, he was not allowed the touch nor to leaf through his father's
    collection, so he decided to start his own collection !
